(It's likely a perl problem, not a cc problem, but cc is what's throwing the error) I'm trying to install the stable.tar.gz (perl-5.6.1) tarball because the rpm'd installed perl keeps crashing the system when using CPAN. The only non-default values used for the configure were the installation directories and not creating symlinks to the new install (ie keeping the old version around for now) make depend worked fine. make dies on the fourth .c file (toke.c) and gives the following message. `sh cflags libperl.a toke.o` toke.c CCCMD = cc -DPERL_CORE -c -fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 cc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1) Please submit a full bug report.

You can probably close this. Its no longer reproduceable once the other sysad stopped messing with the swap partition (was unmounting it for some reason.) I suspect the error was dueto a lack of memory and not availible swap space.
